Report Is Satisfactory 
Sir Henry Thornton Pleased With] 
Record Of C.N.R. 

Ottawa.—The special standing com- 
mittee of commons on Canadian Na- 
tional Railway affairs held its first} 
mecting recently, when General Fis- 
et, Liberal, Rimouski, was  clected 
chairman. Sir Henry Thornton, presi- 
dent of the Canadian Nationa! Rail- 
ways, stated that the report of the} 
tailway showed the calendar year, 
1928, was the most satisfactory of} 
its history, both financially and from 
an operating standpoint, 
|} Out of every dollar traffic re- 
ceipts earned by the C.N.R., 17.64 
, cents was available for interest. On 
| United States class 1 railways only 
| 15.21 cents was available for inter- 
lest. Sir Ifenry thought this was very | 
| satisfactory, particularly as many, 
| ities were in new districts. 

To the question whether the in- 
creased receipts of the C.N.R. were! 
at the expense of the Canadian Pa. 
| cific, or attributable to national} 
growth, Sir Henry said the net earn: | 
jings of the Canadian Pacific attain- | 
ed a record last year, {1 

“Therefore, I should say,” au 
Ilenry asserted, “if I were a CP.R.! 
othcial, that the National is an gs-! 
set to the Canadian Pacific. <As a} 
SN.R, oficial, I consider the Cana- 
dian Pacific is an asset to the Cana- 


dian National.” { 

“Then why not bring the C.P.R. 
down into Nova  Scotfa,” asked 
Colonel Cantley, Conservative, Pic-, 


tou. 
“Well, the C.N.R. is not yet a 
| Christmas tree,” Sir Henry replied. 
As to whether another large wheat 
crop was expected this year, Sir 
| Henry explained it was impossible to! 


forecast any particular 
there had 
progresive incrense 


of wheat produ 


year, How: | 
been a steady and, 
in the quantity 
d, extending over 6 


ever, 


decade of years. 
Hie e::plained that it was generally} 
red that the Great Lakes had 
a sixty-year cycle of high waters and! 
| similar eyele of low wtaers which! 
must be ascribed to the precipitation. | 
Canada was entering on the wet} 
cycle now and it might be pro- 
| phesied that .the greater rainfall] 
| would result in greater crops, H 
The heavy carryover of wheat) 
would assure much business in grain; 
carrying this year. 
Colonel 


consi 


Geary, Conservative, Tor- 
‘onto, inquired if there had been any 
adjustments in railway rates. Sir) 
Hienry replied that rate reductions} 
effective in 1928 had reduced the 
revenue of the Canadian National)

GRAININSPECTION 
SYSTEM SAID TO 
BE ANTIQUATED 


Ottawa.-Standard samples set 
each year by the chief grain inspec- 
tor are frequently higher than tho 
minimum set by the Grain Act, and 
on thrt account cargoes are graded 
lower than they should be. This was 
| the contention of John Gillespie, deal- 
ers’ representative on the grain 
standards hoard, whose evidence was 


; continued before the agricultural and 


colonization committee of the house 
of commons, 

This was the chief complaint, Mr. 
iillespie said, against the inspection 
department. The whole inspection 


| system was antiquated, For instance, 


barley was never graded No. 1 or 2, 
j although there was lots of excellent 
| barley produced, The Grain Act had 
been completely ignored for years. If 
ln act were followed in setting bar- 

samples it would benefit the 
rowers. 

In one ease barley which weighed 

| 46 pounds to the bushel had been re- 

fused No. + grade when the defini- 


ition in the act did not require over 


45 pounds. The reason given for re- 
fusal was that the carload was not 
as good as the standard sample fp 
the hands of the inspector. This sam- 
ple had weighed 49 pounds, 

Hon. James Malcom, minister of 


| 
trade and commerce, pointed out that 


there was an absurdity in the act in 
that conection. The definition for No. 
required that the barley, 
should weigh less 


} than 45 pounds, 


In another case on appeal in re- 
gard to wheat graded No. 4, which 
ithe shipper thought should be No. 3, 
il was shown that it deserved the 
higher grade under the terms of the 
was refused that grade, 
bowever, because the standard sam- 
ple was higher than it should have 
been to represent the minimum, 

Millions of bushels of Alberta 
wheat were graded No. 4 this year 
when it deserved No, 3 because there 
| were not different standard samples 
for that province, Mr. Gillespie con- 
| tended. A volume of Alberta wheat 
had a larger percentage of green 
kernels than the Winnipeg sample, 
but in other respects was often su- 
perior. In any never 
jheard of complaints by Old Country 
buyers against a percentage of green 
kernels. This did not apply, of course, 
to wheat which was largely unripe. 

The sentiment of pools, trade and 
was that there should he 


cnse he had 


producers, 


different standards for Alberta grain. 
It was of a different type from the 
Manitoba and eastern Saskatchewan, 
fend no one sample could be made 
i} which would be 


representative of all 
the grain in the west. 
There is no advantage in shipping 


ito the United Kingdom grain of any 


better quality than the standard 
samples sent each year because no 


| better price will “be received by the 
| producer Mr, Gillespie said, 


Buyers on the European grain ex-
